Does anyone know if there is a work-around / wire-around for the dash lights to stay on whenever the key is on? It's just too hard to see the instrument panel unless I turn on the running lights or headlights. Thanks

 

Romad - I'm with you, the dash is too hard to read being in black. With bright sun coming in from the side window it's nearly impossible to see the small digit's if your an older person. My personal opinion is that the dash would be easier to read if the instrument panel was white instead of black. The only thing I know to do is put in a Mercedes gauge panel out of their model 320. Let me know if you come up with a solution that will avoid removing the entire gauge panel.

Say no more

here’s the solution

 

I guess there really isn't much to see cause it's only the outside temp, milage and the clock that are very dark. Speedo and tach are easily seen.
